Potato/Leek Flatbread

potato leek flatbread - the sam livecast

Makes one 7″x12″ flatbread

Flatbread pretty much just means very thin crust pizza – and this is a delicious one. Many supermarkets now sell balls of raw pizza dough – or you can make your own. Either way you’ll like this.

Ingredients

  • 1 large leek
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 1/2 ball store bought pizza dough
  • Soft garlic & herb cheese, like Alouette
  • 3 or 4 small red potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 425
  2. Cut off root end and bright green tops of leek
  3. Slice what’s left (the white & light green middle) in half lengthwise, rinse under cold water to remove any dirt and dry
  4. Slice each half lengthwise into thin match sticks and saute in a non stick pan with a little olive, salt & pepper until softened (about 3 minutes), remove from heat
  5. Lightly oil baking sheet and spread out dough into about a 7×12 oval
  6. Spread with garlic & herb cheese, potato slices, sauteed leeks and finally the Parmesan
  7. Bake until crispy & golden brown, 10-12 minutes

    Shrimp & Pork Gyoza

    More dumplings with this Asian classic that may have seemed nearly impossible to make at home prior to watching this show. In true Sam fashion, rather than make just shrimp or just pork, he had to combine them together into one epic Asian dumpling. Find the recipe here.

    Not-Fried Honey Walnut Shrimp

    Normally these crispy shrimp are cooked in hot oil, but in the spirit of Sam’s ‘never-fry-anything-because-its-too-damn-smelly’ mantra, we decided we’d rather throw them into a pan for just a little color. Simple and of course, delicious. Find the recipe here.
